End-Of-Life Date for Classic ASP?

Is there an end-of-support date for Classic ASP?

For example, I know that VB6 standard support ended sometime around March
2005, and extended support was available until around March 2008.

Is there a similar end-of-support date(s) for Classic ASP?

I believe it is already past-support. it certainly is not having new
features developed for is.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't use it ...

Although it is not being developed any further, as for being past support,
this tends to suggest otherwise:

Thanks. I guess it all comes down to the definition of "end-of-support".

That thought ocurred to me as I posted, but I interpreted the question in
the way that most similar questions are phrased, as in "If I spend a load of
time building a classic ASP app, how long can I rely on there being a
supported platform to run it on?" or "Will I be forced to migrate my classic
ASP apps anytime soon?"

I always heard people saying IIS ASP front end, and MS-SQL back end. ASP is for server side programming and dynamic content generation, how could it is called front end? Because I thought it is executed in the server, which is back end? I think I am confused with the term front end and back end here. Please advise. Thanks!!

Some time ago I am sure I came across something that said this was possible, though it doesn't seem to work. A client wants to replace an Access back-end with SQL Server tables. We have tried linking the SQL tables to an Access back-end and then linking the linked tables in the Access back-end to the Access front-end. Doesn't work at all. Obviously, this can't be done. What is the best way to replace an Access back-end with SQL tables?
